Awesome place

Full on a Monday night we got the last seats at the bar so we could see the chefs. the burgers we tried were awesome! My omni boss said he couldn't tell it wasn't beef and will now eat more vegan food. Please please please come to Edinburgh we are thousands of vegans who would love your food and cool vibes :)

Pros: Best burger , Cool atmosphere music

Fantastic Place, But You May Have To Wait

I love the Vegan Junk Food Bar! The decor is awesome, the music is fun, the food is filling and fantastic! However, Amsterdam is a busy city and the premesis is quite small.

First time I visited, we had to wait an 45 minutes for a table, but it had recently opened to great fanfare so it was expected.

Over a year later, I went again recently and we had to wait 1 hour 30 minutes! This was on a Thursday! The staff member was quite blasé about this, I assume it's a regular situation for them, but we weren't happy. They took my number and said they'd call when a spot became available. We turned up 90 mins later, no phone call, and then we were seated.

Luckily it is worth the wait, the entire culinary experience from beginning to end is interesting as well as delicious. Still, they walk a fine line and I'd think twice about going if such waiting times continue.

Pros: Unique decor, Hearty, filling food, Vegan alternatives to Dutch junk food classics

Cons: Quite expensive, Ridiculous waiting times

Junk food

Really good food, and good service.
Very filling, especially the loaded fries which have lots of sauce.

Great Burgers and Fries

It is really loud inside and not much place, but the food was really tasty. The Burger would be bigger and better than expected. If you still like some fast food, try this place.

I think I’d built this place up in my head too much

I was really looking forward to coming here and we’d been on a lunchtime flight with no vegan options so I was hungry. I ordered the loaded fries (kapsalon) which I thought was ok but I did get sick of them towards the end and I did think that the topping of red, spring and fried onions were over the top. It took ages to get to the chips. I had a chocolate cake with a baileys infusion. I thought it might have been bigger after the massive cakes I’d been eating in Lisbon but this cake seemed small. It also could be because we’d opted to sit at the bar rather than wait 45 minutes for a table that I felt a bit uncomfortable. Anyway, I would like to try it again (but I won’t have time) but I wouldn’t have the loaded fries.

Cons: Over the top topping on loaded fries

Delicious !

I didn’t know it could be possible to cook junk and vegan food. And it is surprisingly awesome ! We had a huge plate of French fries with guacamole and toppings. Then, we ate Mexican and bitter balls. Great place ! We loved it.

Pros: 100% vegan food , Nice atmosphere , Pretty cool team

More than 5 stars!

Mijn eerste vegan ervaring buiten de deur toen we vegan waren geworden. En nog steeds heb ik het idee dat ik voor de gek word gehouden. Hun burgers, kaas en nu sinds kort hun sashimi van "tonijn" en "zalm" zijn zo goed, zo lekker, dat ik soms het idee heb toch stiekem non vegan te eten.
Een groot compliment voor de koks!!

My first vegan experience outside the door when we became vegan. And still I have the idea that I am being fooled. Their burgers, cheese and now their sashimi of "tuna" and "salmon" are so good, so delicious, that sometimes I have the idea to secretly eat non-vegan food.
A big compliment for the cooks !!

Pros: Vegan

Cons: Altijd druk!😉

Food was great, the waiting time not so much

We waited 2 hours to get in to this place. On a Thursday. After 2 hours we went to the waiter and asked how long until we could get in. Apparently he had tried to call us like 10 tables earlier. But he called the wrong number and when we pointed that out (he had the right number written down), there was no excuse from him. I think that's what he at least could've done.

When we finally got in the new waitress was very nice and quick. The food was great too.

Pros: great burger - especially the beef, great mayo , cozy

Cons: WE WAITED 2 HOURS!

Big burgers and crispy fries

Fresh junk food! Burgers had great mix of flavours. Bring your non vegan friends and let them try plant-based junk food. Love this place!

As long as you’re not on a diet

If junk food is your vice, you are in for a treat. Amazing selection, and this branch has a quite good range of gf options too - although no burger. Hope that this will change, but even with current menu we would happily visit again. Service was good and the inside and outside space had a good feel about it.

Pros: All vegan , Gluten free options , Outdoor seating

love it

Like everyone else this is a must visit whenever you go to Amsterdam. The atmosphere and food are funky and fresh. I ordered a few things I didnt like but that's me being a picky eater. Truffle fries are amazing!

Amazing

Typisches alternatives veganes Restaurant wie man es auch in Berlin finden würde.
Das Essen war mega lecker. Hot Dog im Croissant?! Der Wahnsinn. Oder Pommes mit Trüffel? Großartig.
Moderate Preise und super Ambiente.

Great food!

We had the bitterball, hot dog croissant and chicken tortilla. Both entrees had similar tastes, because they very generously use a mix of onions in just about everything, so beware if you’re not into a ton of onions. Very casual place, nice servers, seating indoors or out.

Pros: Wide variety of Dutch and western food, Good texture, Desserts and coffee too

Cons: Extreme onions in everything

BEST BURGER EVER

Simply put: THE best vegan junk food ever. Hands down.

We had the Notorious Sumo Burger each, Amsterdam Bitterballen and Amsterdam staple, Triple Fried Chips. The burger was the best we ever had! (and there was three of us!)
Thank you so much to the whole Vegan Junk Food team who made this experience for us possible! (we ordered as a delivery so we don't know faces or names.) Great and fast service with friendly driver. 🤘🤘❤️

Junk food made funny

The atmosphere is really really cool, staff is super kind and the menu has many good options.
I got amsterdam bitterballen which was very nice the sauce a litttlee too spicy maybe. On the other hand it's pretty pricy.

Pros: Cool atmosphere, Tasty food

Cons: Pretty pricy

You can do better

Of all the places I visited in Amsterdam, this one was perhaps the biggest let-down. They have a large menu, full of dishes that sound exciting. I ordered one for dinner and another for breakfast, but both turned out to be mediocre. The service was exceedingly slow throughout, and the prices were decidedly high for junk food.

Tasty, indulgent food.

Busy and stylish place. Menu pretty much all fake-meat dishes. I dont enjoy meat so dont find those options that appetising. Had loaded fancy fries which were delicious. Portions are huge!

Pros: perfect if you miss meat in your vegan/veggie diet

Cons: limited non-meatsubsitute options

DELICIOUS!

My husband and I split the Daddy McChikn, and it was probably the best vegan burger I've ever had. We also split the Loaded Fries (Kapsalon) and I got to taste our friend's Loaded Fries (Fishy) and I thought they were good but not great. I'm not huge on fries, but the pictures looked so good we got them. If I went back, I would just have a burger all to myself!

Pros: DELICIOUS!!, Good service
